“When Paola first told me about this latest yarn, I was really excited. A blend of Tibetan Cloud, Baby Yak and a bit of linen on top sounded perfect. And my expectations were more than fulfilled! Fior di Lino is a joy to knit with and produces a wonderfully soft yet beautifully supple fabric. The stitch definition and the drape are absolutely amazing. Perfect for sweaters and accessories.
Knowing how important fair and safe working conditions are to mYak, along with their great love and respect for the environment, makes Fior di Lino a yarn I can recommend with all my knitter’s heart…. and I feel really honoured that mYak invited me to contribute to the colour palette of this beautiful yarn!” (Isabell Kraemer)

Sustainable Yarn with Social Awareness

Wooldreamers was created by the 4th Generation of our Family Mill where the family work with every stage of wool: from the sheep to the yarn.

The Wooldreamers project aims to be part of the solution to the critical problem of Spanish wool being undervalued, and in some cases treated as waste

due to global market conditions.

Nowadays, our family mill covers all stages of Spanish wool production, right from shearing the sheep to spinning the yarn under the same roof. This means we are the only ones treating the wool from the very beginning. So we can guarantee the quality of yarn, with minimum carbon emissions AND we can guarantee the traceability of our yarn from the sheep to your hands.

We have been working very closely with local Spanish farmers on the adoption of preferable techniques and sharing knowledge in order to produce the very best yarn, always focusing on animal welfare.

After many years of prep we launched our first collections, starting with Dehesa de Barrera - 100% Spanish Merino Wool Yarn with full traceability (coming to Tribe soon!)

Our second collection was Manchelopi: A unique and soft unspun yarn made with Manchega Wool. The white and black wool comes from 2 different flocks near our hometown. This yarn is so different and light. Everyone who tries it falls in love with it.

And last but not least, we would like to share something that we are very committed to. In the planning of each collection, we collaborate with people with disabilities at risk of social exclusion. People who deserve to be rewarded for the great work they do. They help us with the labelling and braiding of our skeins.

So, to sum up, we are a project that pays special attention to sustainability, helping farmers to continue caring for their flocks, supporting local wool, and showing solidarity with our vulnerable community.
